Shownotes

In this episode Matthew and Cindy look at the relationship between carbon emissions, trade and standards.

Cindy speaks to Devin McDaniels and Mateo Ferrero of the World Trade Organization about their recent report, 'What Yardstick for Net Zero'. The report looks at how WTO principles on regulation, international standards and conformity assessments can inform net zero efforts.

Cindy, Devin and Matteo discuss why it’s important to use the same 'yardsticks' to measure and verify carbon emissions. And how international standards and quality infrastructure systems can help deliver climate policies by building trust.

In this episode there’s also a Standards Desk of News, with items on a new standard for purpose-driven organizations, tables and chairs!
